Our Mission

We are committed to the intellectual, moral and spiritual development of our children, in a safe nurturing Catholic environment, to the honor and glory of God.

Since 1954, St. Matthew School has educated elementary school students in an academically rigorous setting rooted in Catholic values. We celebrate the diversity of our student body and welcome children of all faiths.

Differentiated instruction provides students with an educational experience that promotes academic achievement. Confident, well prepared students who can solve problems, collaborate and respect the abilities of others characterizes the St. Matthew School student body. The dedicated faculty and staff take pride and care to ensure that every student has opportunities to develop these important qualities.
